minds

Herndon, Virginia (June 21, 2013)— The United States Geospatial Intelligence Foundation (USGIF) is now accepting nominations for its annual awards program. The USGIF Awards Program recognizes the exceptional work of individuals in the geospatial intelligence tradecraft. Work is acknowledged for intelligence achievement, including government, military, industry, administrative support, academic achievement and academic research.

Anyone involved with the geospatial intelligence community may apply or nominate someone or a team for an award. Applications can be downloaded at http://geoint2013.com/about/awardsprogram. The deadline for award nominations is 5 p.m. EST Friday, August 30.

The nomination process is simple and the reward is priceless.”

Those selected for these awards receive free registration to the GEOINT 2013 Symposium where their achievements are acknowledged on stage during the general session, in the program guide, on USGIF’s multiple websites, and in press releases and news articles.

“Since the beginning of our awards program, we have seen a steady rise in the number and quality of submissions,” said USGIF CEO Keith Masback. “It’s incredibly important that we take this annual opportunity to appropriately recognize those who have distinguished themselves in our community by their hard work, dedication and uniquely valuable contributions.”
